Bigbox PCSX2 Exiting, Need to Alt+Tab

[weimsd]

For my mame arcade I added PS2 games that don't run as well in mame like Time Crisis II, and I can get the PCSX2 1.7 to close with a single button as intended, but then I lose all ability to do anything in Big Box until I Alt+Tab which I guess makes Big Box the active window again.

Is there a way when I exit PCSX2 it makes Big Box the active window again?  I scoured the internet, but since PCSX2 1.7 is pretty new I couldn't find anything.

Ya.  Don't do that.   Use PCSX2.

 

In PCSX2, make sure you have Confirm Shutdown un-checked (Settings - Interface).

In LaunchBox, edit your PCSX2 emulator (Tools, Manage, Emulators) and have "-nogui" (without quotes) in the Default Command-line Parameters.

Unfortunately that didn't work.  Still the same problem where after the game exists none of the big box UI keyboard controls work until I either click on the UI or Alt+Tab

Figured it out.  Found a youtube of someone with the same issue, then tweaked it a little bit.

 

I didn't do all that though, I just took a piece of his code and added it to the Exit Autohotkey Script in Manage/Edit emulator for PCSX2.

Below is the Exit AutoHotkey Script.

 

; PCSX2 has an ugly exit process; this cleans it up visually
Process, Close, {{{StartupEXE}}}

WinExist("LaunchBox Big Box")
{
WinActivate
}
